Mmmm. No. AI isn’t as smart a dumb 2nd grader.
technology in the classroom is a golden calf, always to be worshipped by the educrat apparatchiks
Because its promise can always be spun into a nice fairy tale, and above all, it deflects any questions one might have of the educrat bureaucracy, their methods, or their culture/politics.
No modern technology helps education and learning in any substantive way, books, paper, pencils and good teachers, desks and decent lighting, and heating and cooling pretty much covers it.
The underlying problem is the education system is in the hands of the enemy.
“AI Is an Artificial Fix for American Education”
Could you say that AI reduces the need for an education?
AI is basically an interactive knowledge bank like we used to code as an end user’s Q & A site. Granted, 20+ years ago we didn’t make them talk or give them cool names, but the basic idea is the same.
The biggest difference is that AI ‘reads’ the internet. It compiles and catalogs data found there.
If I went on all the social media sites and interactive websites and used “Taylor Swift murdered Elvis Presley” as my opening line, end line and signature tagline, eventually AI would include that in it’s data-bank. Once it moves up in rank it will begin to include it in it’s replies to queries about Elvis’ death.
If I was coding it and added some ranking tweaks (much like google does) I could control the conversion, so to speak.
AI is not a toy. It is dangerous.
